Don’t forget to check out the “haunted” museum while you’re enjoying A Festival of Oddities & Needful Things-A Fest of Odds!
SIX MORE DAYS!
There's always so much to see and do at the festival, don't forget to take a moment to appreciate the building sitting at the heart of it all.
The Courthouse Square Museum was built in the late 1800s, and served as Eaton County's courthouse for nearly a century. Today, it is a well-curated museum with a focus on local history and a reputation as one of the most haunted buildings in Michigan.
Admission to the museum is $5 during the festival and all proceeds go to the museum, which operates as a non-profit. This is their biggest fundraiser of the year! Pay at the door, cash or card, and get a VIP bracelet that's good for the WHOLE WEEKEND! This includes access to:
🖤 All three floors of the museum. (There's even an elevator now!)
🖤 Fun features like our multiple selfie stations and a tinfoil hat making station!
🖤 A meet and greet with real-life paranormal investigators Crossroads Of Curiosities, LLC.
🖤 Exclusive, indoor-only vendors and shops, including Battle Cry Leathercraft and Great Lakes Sweets.
🖤 REAL BATHROOMS! No port-a-potties for you!
🖤 Our VIP lounge, new this year- a cooling center with indoor seating and phone charging stations!
